Highschool Sporting Events
Due to the pandemic, children in grade 8 and below are not allowed to a high school event without an adult. We ask every adult that comes with a child to make sure the child understands that they must sit 6 feet apart from non-household fans at the game. Children are not allowed to touch and congregate in any areas and must wear a mask at all times. Children who do not comply with this will be first asked to sit with the adult they came with and if the behavior continues the child will be asked to leave the game and will be banned from extra curricular events this school year. Children may sit in the grass area 6 feet apart or line up along the fence line 6 feet apart but they must wear a mask and be 6 feet apart.

Pendleton Community Public Library
Next week your student will bring home a Pendleton Library card. By using their "One Card, One Student" (1C1S) library card, students can access digital materials through the Pendleton Community Public Library’s Student Portal (www.pendleton.lib.in.us/student-portal) The Portal offers access to e-books, audiobooks, educational databases, and learning resources, all carefully curated for subject matter and age appropriateness. The Student Portal also offers access to tutor.com, a live, one-on-one tutoring platform that provides personal assistance to students from elementary school to college.
Some resources require a library barcode for access. Students should use the barcode on the back of their 1C1S card. The default PIN is 1234.
If you do not want your student to have a 1C1S card, please contact the school.If you have questions about 1C1S, or any of the Pendleton Community Public Library’s resources or services, please call (765) 778-7527.
